How To Get The Most Out Of Your SEO Efforts

By Manny Rutz


Sometimes is not easy to get the results you want with search engine optimization. Mainly because the rules and methods that used to work are no longer effective. SEO changes constantly and if you want to be on top of the game you need to be on top of what's working now in the seo world because search engines like Google are constantly updating and changing the way the ranked websites.

Backlinks are still king but quality is everything now, so build a great series of appropriate backlinks on your site. Have your keyword phrases be in the titles of said links. Make sure that these network links are related to your content, otherwise they could possibly work against you. Using backlinks is a great way to bring in traffic from various areas.

Right now there are about three types of backlinks that work very well. The first one is blog commenting, leaving relevant comments on other blogs to link back to your site. The second is using social media and social bookmarking sites to boost your search engine rankings even more. The third is using article distribution networks and web 2.0 properties to build quality links to your site.

Now it's fair to say that even before you think about doing off-page seo and start any type of link building campaigns you need to be sure that your onsite optimization is well done. Having well optimized content for your targeted keywords and a complete meta description & keywords will make a huge difference. Be sure to check these and fix any issues before doing any link building.

There are other few tweaks you can do like for example if you are using a platform like Wordpress or Joomla you can add an xml sitemap to your website to help search engines crawl and find your content even faster. Of course in the end is all about you testing and experimenting with different types of link campaigns to see what works for your site. We hope these tips are helpful to you.
